Dolly Pops [New]

Dolly Pops was produced by Knickerbocker from 1979 to 1982. They were a series of flat-backed, hard plastic doll with pop-on/pop-off plastic outfits. The 2-inch dolls were sold on their own, with carry-case playsets, and also larger playsets.

Starcastle [Updated]

Jul 25, 2017

I've just updated the Starcastle section with a new playset from the Tropical Collection (also newly added), as well as identifying the last unknown playset as belonging to this collection too.

I've just added three more charms to the Sweet Secrets section (two more Beauty Bows and one series two charm), plus several publicity images which show of the sets better than the old packaging images I had found (all with thanks to Pablo)!

I've just added six more ponies to the Little Beauties section. This includes two more Light-Up Ponies, two more Sunstreak Ponies and a new page for Wind-Up ponies, which I didn't know about! I've also added a packaging image of the Micro Ponies.

Yawnies

Yawnies were produced by Hornby Hobbies Limited in 1987. They
were a short lived series of plush animals which could
be made to yawn when used like a puppet. They had
a hole at the backs of their heads for you to put
your fingers in to animate them.

There were originally six
animals in the series which came in three sizes (approx.
8", 14" & 18"), but I have also found
three, possibly four more characters which may
have been part of a second, small release series (I just
don't know!).

The largest size is the
hardest to find. The design didn't
change from one size to the next, so I have only included
one image of each animal.

Beddy
Bye The Bunny

Cuddly
The Mouse

Dreamy
The Lion

Nighty
The Dog

Slumber
The Cat

Snoozey Bear

Are these four part of a
second series with only a small production line? The dragon,
elephant and pig were found in the UK and labeled correctly,
whereas the bird was found in the US as has no labeling,
so could be a knockoff. The bird and pig are medium in size
and the dragon and elephant are small. I've also seen a
large elephant too, so must have all been released in different
sized like the ones above.

For completeness, here are images of Slumber
The Cat in his three different sizes, plus packaging:
